MA Stretch Energy Code 2023 for Commercial Buildings: Targeted Performance/Relative Performance Compliance Paths (Part 2)

New commercial buildings over 20,000 ft2 must use a performance path for compliance with the 2023 Massachusetts Energy Stretch Code. This training focuses on the two most used performance-based compliance options. The Targeted Performance path requires projects to use energy modeling to demonstrate compliance with the heating and cooling Thermal Energy Demand Intensity (TEDI) targets. This training will go over the energy modeling requirements of both compliance options, requirements other than energy modeling that projects must meet, documentation that must be submitted to code officials, and special rules for retrofits, additions, and core-and-shell projects.
